My son who is 11 has at least since age 4 shown dysfluencies that are unusual, and I now wonder if he is showing cluttering. He has never shown pressure during speech, but often restarts statements, adding one or two new words each time, and seems rushed at times. He has limited awareness of this. He has no word finding problem but does show word-final dysfluencies, as in"the monsters wouldn't fight...ightbut they don't care for each other. What is the way to approach this, to make him more aware or to ignore?
